The Mode S is a secondary surveillance radar which will replace the current Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCRBS). The ATCRBS uses ground-based rotating antenna that transmits continuous radio frequency (RF) interrogations to which a transponder equipped aircraft will respond. The replies provide the ATC system with an aircraft identification code or the aircraft altitude. Aircraft location information is provided by the rotational position of the antenna and the transponder response delay at the time a reply is received. The Mode S will provide the same functions as the ATCRBS, but will do so more accurately while offering the additional capability of transmitting digital information across a two-way, air-ground Data Link. These enhancements are possible because each aircraft will be assigned a unique address code which will be used in the system's interrogations to select only the requested aircraft to respond. This report details the results of Mini Study 2. This Mini Study was conducted utilizing the Data Link test bed. Initial Data Link air traffic control services were evaluated under part task simulation conditions in order to identify service delivery methods which optimize controller acceptance, performance, and workload.
